I regularly read usenet group microsoft.public.basic.dos.
Some very knowlegeable DOS and QuickBasic fanatic people there think that
DOS 7 is much better than 6.21 or 6.22.
In this machine, a 133 Mhz 586, I only use DOS 7. Never had any
problem.
DOS 7 corrected some problems with the space dedicated to the enviroment,
I think.
I even modified command.com, so when it loads it shows:
"DoOrS 2000" instead of "Microsoft(r) Windows 98".
Por favor confirmar por email recepcion de esta carta. Gracias
